Hi Jonathan,

Here you go, let me= know how it works for you:

I made it so that it can work with or without a GUI = so you can use it with ft-Toolbar http://aescripts.com/ft-toolbar/ if you want= .

Cheers,

This would be such a time-saver. It isn't often that I have to c= reate animations as I did on that job, but having a script to handle this w= ould be terrific. Where do I sign up?

Hi, Eric,

I can see that method working well,= but in this project the precomps (and there a lot of them) overlap each ot= her quite a bit. That's why the main comps are so long. And when I go from = one main to the next main comp, I have the end of the previous comp at the = top of the next one to keep the flow going. Anyway, rendered 124 pieces ove= r five hours last night. Now to check them out.

And shifting gears a bit, any suggestions for batching = 124 MOVs into WMVs?

Many thanks,

Jonathan

Not sure of the way your files are built, and this pro= bably won't work since it sounds like your using a lot of layers across dif= ferent portions, but could you make pre comps of the bits you want in each = part and then drag all the pre comps over to the render que?

What is so tedious is creating the work area, then having to make = a custom selection. I'm breaking down about one hundred clips out of maybe = 12 comps.
